My ice blue eyes
Ice blue eyes ~ gaze lovingly at you
Radiating ~ joy to all I see
My motto ~” show kindness to all”
A smile chases all the blues away
Blue butterfly ~ flutters by
Such beauty to behold
I love nature, wildflowers, trees,birds,bees
All radiate God’s love
Stop what your doing ~ smell the roses
Be thankful to be alive
You are enough my friend
The world a better place because your in it.
Put on your coat or hoodie like me
Let’s go a walk in beauty that surrounds us
Autumn is springing forth
Awesome colours to brighten your day
It all came fast, a sudden start,
I wondered why I won your heart.
The days we’ve shared are still so few,
Yet everyone brought smiles with you.
The beginning remains a mystery unknown,
Your touch, a presence still not shown.
There are times you face a question’s weight
Your eyes ask why – unsure of fate.
But eventually, you’ll feel I’m yours to stay,
No what-ifs, no buts – just hands that won’t slip away
Your gaze becomes my forever’s light
Your arms, my rest through every night
Why you? Was it the meal that you lovingly made?
Why you? Was it the warmth in every kind gesture laid?
Why you? Was it the laughter we both freely shared?
I choose you – why not? You’re meant for the road I’ve prepared
Winter seems to finally be here to stay
Just like how you now have passed away,
But seasons change, and I know someday
We will meet again, some when, some way.
The snow is echoing back all sound made
As my own sad inner voice begins to fade.
Quiet is all I was hoping for on this walk,
But a car goes by, and I can't help but talk...
I talk to your spirit, as though you hear it.
I don't care if none of this is real, not one bit.
Only thing that grounds me are memories,
Because in the end we all have our stories.
I know all of us, your loved ones, shall grieve,
But for me, you're a guide who'll never leave.
I promise, granny, I won't live so passively,
From now on I'll live like you did: lovingly.
The flowers that so lovingly you held
And savored for some moment with closed eyes;
The sweets that from their wrappers you unshelled,
For which you gave a kiss to be my prize;
The necklace with a pretty pendant thing
Which on your slender neck you proudly hung;
The ring that on your finger now does cling
And much delighted you had almost sung.
The smiles so innocent and joyful arms
That welcomed me when I came to your house--
Oh, you did win me over with your charms,
But it’s not you I wanted to espouse:
You thought the presents were all meant for you,
But ‘twas your sister I desired to woo.
~~ I Lovingly Remember~~
I remember being in my crib, hugging my Teddy Bear.
I remember, Mother reading poetry to me.
I remember, dancing and talking to myself, in a tall mirror.
And I remember, getting my first manicure, leather school bag,
with my initials, embossed in gold.
I remember, so well, the scary black-outs in WW II.
I remember, my very first Holy Communion.
I remember, rolling down tall hills of fluffy snow.
I even remember, my first diamond ring, set in rose-gold.
I remember, the joy of walking my playful dog.
But my favorite memory.………is still yet to come!
And on this busy day before a blessed Thanksgiving,
Please SHARE one or two of yours, that is in your memory shining!
Thank you!
With Holiday Hugs….

Love just how slow the time that is spent between us passes
As I gaze into your lovely bronze eyes through my glasses.
Your own loving gaze fazes me so deeply, but remains harmless.
Under the moonlight
He sees her eyes
Once They embrace,
The stars, they rise
Day after day,
the sun shines for them, so it be
Someday they will find a place
To Carve their names onto a tree
Roses in her amber stained hair,
Daisies in his spring basil eyes
They are one until the earth turns to dust,
They will grow old and together be lovingly wise.
paisley hues
Ebony skin so shines
And pageantry it it just do
Chocolate delight
I taste her variance
I embrace her spirit
Her face so shines as the daylight
I am intertwined
So caught up in her soul
I confess I never want to let her go

verdant lacy moss
nestles tree in loving way
ethereal entrance
RIGHTEOUSLY SO LOVINGLY
Actions speak
Ever so louder than words
But your beautiful, spirit over flows
And my darling if you'll just give me a chance
Together in arms
Spiritually first
Later in wedlock married I'll call
You love, call you my love
As we walk down the altar
Under the permission and eyes of the Father
Spiritually first, within His awesome true
Just gave me a chance for a new romance
Ever so louder than words
But your beautiful, spirit over flows
Righteously so lovingly
I thank you both God and you for a second chance
For romance, together in arms
Loving you holy and honesty you'll be my forever love

Words Lovingly Written
With the firm held touch of a pen
Soft-spoken words unimagined
The peace of Christ inside the heart
The grace of His eternal forgiveness
God has created nothing more than beautiful
Pen in hand, words from Him so lovingly…
God has words lovingly written

Words Lovingly Written by James Edward Lee Sr.
I know many of you have written love letters
You've written them to a woman, man, boy, or girl;
Now what is this thing that I've heard;
That the physical can't meet the spiritual;
Now have you ever stopped and try and ponder;
Have you ever spoke it into existence;
Now what I have is so insistence;
Words lovingly written
Now I write these words with come from God;
He ignites my heart, mind, and soul with love;
And if I keep my eyes on Him;
This process will never, ever end;
I know many of you have written love letters

My, God give me the revelation
Words lovingly written
Now I write these words with come from God;
He ignites my heart, mind, and soul with love;
And if I keep my eyes on Him;
This process will never, ever end;

baby, i'm stuck in the fog.
it is surrounding me.
trying to find a way out,
but there's not much i can see
except a shadow where you used to be.
maybe i can reach the light house
before you reach the sea.
but i know you'll find a way out
and lovingly leave.
